What can be done with a 4th gen 3.0L VQ engine?

Apparently, a lot!
Check out this Dune Buggie!?!

Here's the lowdown:

STATS:
The Good:

500 HP dynoed at the wheels using the Maxima's 3.0L VQ.



Twin Turbo at 15psi boost using Garrett turbochargers!
JE forged pistons

Carillo Billet Steel Rods
Ported Heads
Stock CAMs
And of course, a built bottom end


The not so good:
Uses Leaded gasoline
Ya wanna transmission to handle all that power?
Custom Transmission = $7000.

Chassis alone = $16,000
Total Vehicle cost (as a DIY project): about $50,000
